Meet the Mets
The Mets announced yesterday that they’ve agreed to a multi-year partnership that will put an absolutely hideous NewYork-Presbyterian logo on their uniforms.
The team would have played its home opener yesterday, but that game was postponed for bad weather on what turned out to be a very nice day. They’ll play the home opener today instead.
Francisco Álvarez will be on the Mets’ active roster today after Omar Narváez hit the injured list with a calf injury that will likely keep him out for a couple of months.
Don’t get too excited, though, as Álvarez is apparently going to be on the bench for the game.
The Mets claimed 25-year-old right-handed reliever Edwin Uceta, who has a 6.27 ERA in his brief major league career, off waivers from the Pirates.
